Port Arthur High School Reunion Lyrics

Port Arthur High School Reunion

What do you think about your town since you`ve left and come back ?

It`s fantastic! I was across the river from the club last night, I never had
more fun in my life! Except sometimes in California I have more fun.

Do you plan to come back soon ?

Oh ? Er, er, er, I have no immediate plans, ha ha ha!!

Did you entertain in high school, at the high school, when you went back at the
high school ?

Only when I walked down the aisles, man. No, I did, no, I was, er, I was a
painter, and a sort of a recluse in high school. I`ve changed.

What happened ?

I got liberated! I don`t know, I just started to sing and singing makes you
want to come out because painting, I feel, keeps you inside, you know ? And
once you start singing you just sort of want too talk to people more and go out
more and, you know, your lifestyle`s becomes more a come-out, flow-out thing
instead of a hold-it-and-be-quiet type.

How were you different from your schoolmates when you were a teenager ?

I don`t know, why don`t you ask them ?

Did they make you different ?

No.

Otherwise were you different in comparison with them, or were you ?

I felt apart from them.

Did you take a part in football games ?

I think not. I didn`t go to the high school prom, and er ...

Oh, you were asked, weren`t you ?

No, I wasn`t. I don`t think, I don`t think they wanted to take me. Till I`ll be
a hundred and sufferin`! It`s enough to make you wanna sing the blues!
